Another day reconfiguring a computer.

My laptop has reached it's max level on the hard drive. In an attempt to slim down by deleting some programs I removed some vital "stuff" that makes the system stable. The result was an endless events of crashes. The laptop involved is 6 years old, time flies when you are having fun. The processor is still fast a Pentium 4, 2.4Ghz. with a 16" screen. It's a behemoth of a laptop.

I reloaded the system software but a bit of upgrading was required. I downloaded a bunch of Microsoft updates and things was up to par. Next was upgrades for Explorer and other windows software. Reloaded Norton for virus protection and firewall. The wireless modem was then reloaded and things started to work like new. No junk is going to this reconfiguration, only windows supplied screen savers. I'm not even loading the programs included with the restore disks. I'm making this a portable Photoshop 7 computer. No word processors, no games, no unnecessary junk, not even porn, ahhh, maybe. LOL

I used to think that I can keep this one out of the internet but I want to be able to write blogs, and surf the net with it too.
